Mat at the opening of Petra


A series as the Treasury comes into view through the narrow rock passages.

 
Rachel and Mat at the Treasury.  This is a gorgeous place carved right out of the rock. 
The one of Rachel is at 8AM and the one of Mat is at 1PM

 
As you walk down into the city of Petra, it is lined with houses and tombs cut out of the rock


This gives you a glimpse of the colors and contours of the rock walls in Petra.  Quite glorious.

 
More views from inside rooms looking outward

 
A picture of the narrows (L) and inside the Treasury (R)


Taking a rest at the cave museum at the back of Petra.  It is built up in one of the cliffs.
